Re: Gas Mask Episode!
That's impressive, Chris. The pre-title sequence works great with the music pulsating away behind it. The shot revealing the gas mask man @ 4:04 is excellent and Vincent's reaction when he prods him made me laugh. I like the look of it all round. Lots of moody atmosphere and sense of menace. The Magician character is growing on me now... he's bonkers. Quality stuff.
The Thriller part didn't work so well for me, personally because I think it broke the pace. And I know I've just said this about a DD story... but you ought to be careful not to reveal anything about story twists in the title. Brother & Sister is a nice title, but it gives away the revelation.

Bravo, Chris! That was awesome! Took a while to get to the good stuff for me (well...I had already seen the Magician's intro stuff) but the rap dancing was so much fun and great to see Medea again! Sort of evil and sexy combination...I like it!

Great fun. What I really like about VK is the all-consuming confidence of each project and a sly wit that makes it charming company. The "Thriller" sequence was a bit hit-and-miss but it was very welcome although maybe a bit too long (as were the pre-credits) but I'm nitpicking because it entertained me as a whole with lots of cool touches and cinematic flourishes - as knightmare pointed out, the revelation of the Gas Mask man was particularly witty and well done. And very Doctor Who-ish.
And I'm keen to know the Magician's fate. A fascinating character.
The title did gave too much away but what the hell. 8/10.
